=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
opt - LLVM optimizer
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
B<opt> [I<options>] [I<filename>]
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<opt> command is the modular LLVM optimizer and analyzer. It takes LLVM
|
|
bytecode as input, runs the specified optimizations or analyses on it, and then
|
|
outputs the optimized LLVM bytecode or the analysis results. The function of
|
|
B<opt> depends on whether the B<-analyze> option is given.
|
|
|
|
When B<-analyze> is specified, B<opt> performs various analyses of LLVM
|
|
bytecode. It will usually print the results on standard output, but in a few
|
|
cases, it will print output to standard error or generate a file with the
|
|
analysis output, which is usually done when the output is meant for another
|
|
program.
|
|
|
|
While B<-analyze> is I<not> given, B<opt> attempts to produce an optimized
|
|
bytecode file. The optimizations available via B<opt> depend upon what
|
|
libraries were linked into it as well as any additional libraries that have
|
|
been loaded with the B<-load> option. Use the B<-help> option to determine
|
|
what optimizations you can use.
|
|
|
|
If I<filename> is omitted from the command line or is I<->, B<opt> reads its
|
|
input from standard input. The input must be an LLVM bytecode file.
|
|
|
|
If an output filename is not specified with the B<-o> option, B<opt>
|
|
writes its output to the standard output.
|
|
|
|
=head1 OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
=over
|
|
|
|
=item B<-f>
|
|
|
|
Force overwrite. Normally, B<opt> will refuse to overwrite an
|
|
output file that already exists. With this option, B<opt> will
|
|
overwrite the output file and replace it with new bytecode.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-help>
|
|
|
|
Print a summary of command line options.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-o> I<filename>
|
|
|
|
Specify the output filename.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-profile-info-file> I<filename>
|
|
|
|
Specify the name of the file loaded by the -profile-loader option.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-stats>
|
|
|
|
Print statistics.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-time-passes>
|
|
|
|
Record the amount of time needed for each pass and print it to standard
|
|
error.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-debug>
|
|
|
|
If this is a debug build, this option will enable debug printouts
|
|
from passes which use the I<DEBUG()> macro. See the B<LLVM Programmer's
|
|
Manual>, section I<#DEBUG> for more information.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-load>=I<plugin>
|
|
|
|
Load the dynamic object I<plugin>. This object should register new optimization
|
|
or analysis passes. Once loaded, the object will add new command line options to
|
|
enable various optimizations or analyses. To see the new complete list of
|
|
optimizations, use the B<-help> and B<-load> options together. For example:
|
|
|
|
=over
|
|
|
|
B<opt -load>=I<plugin> B<-help>
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
=item B<-p>
|
|
|
|
Print module after each transformation.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
=head1 EXIT STATUS
|
|
|
|
If B<opt> succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error
|
|
occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value.
